Mace- Psychic Powers, Mental Powers Maguey - Lust Magnolia - Fidelity Mahogany - Mountain, Anti-Lightning Maidenhair - Beauty, Love Male Fern- Luck, Love Mallow - Love, Protection, Exorcism Mandrake - Protection, Love, Money, Fertility, Health A whole mandrake root, placed on the mantle in the home, will give the house protection, fertility, and prosperity. Mandrake is also hung on the headboard for protection during sleep, carried to at-tract love, and worn to prevent contraction of illnesses. Where there is mandrake, demons cannot reside, and so the root is used in exorcism. To 'activate' a dried mandrake root (ie., to bring its powers out of hibernation), place it in some prominent location in the house and leave it there undisturbed for three days. Then place it in warm water and leave overnight. Afterwards, the root is activated and may be used in any magical practice. The water in which the root has bathed can be sprinkled at the windows and doors of the house to protect it, or onto people to purify them. The mandrake has also long served as a poppet in image magic, but its extreme scarcity and high cost usually forces the magician and Witch to look for substitutes; ash roots, apples, the root of the briony, the American may-apple and many others have been used. Money placed beside a mandrake root (especially silver coins) is said to double, and the scent of the mandrake causes sleep Maple - Love, Longevity, Money Marigold - Protection, Prophetic Dreams, Legal Matters, Psychic Powers Marjoram - Protection, love, Happiness, Health, Money Master Wort- Strength, Courage, Protection Mastic - Psychic Powers, Manifestations, Lust May Apple- Money Meadow Rue- Divination Meadowsweet - Love, Divination, Peace, Happiness Mesquite - Healing Mimosa - Protection, Love, Prophetic Dreams, Purification Mint - Protection, Strength Mullein - Courage, Protection, Health, Love, Divination, Exorcism Mullein is worn to keep wild animals from you while hiking in untamed areas.

It is also used to banish demons and negativity. In the Ozarks, men performed a simple love divination. The man went to a clearing where a mullein grew and bent it down so that it pointed toward his love's house. If she loved him the mullein would grow upright again; if she loved another it would die. Graveyard dust-an infrequent ingredient in spells-can be substituted with powdered mullein leaves. At one time Witches and magicians used oil lamps to illuminate their spells and rites, and the downy leaves and stems of the mullein often provided the wicks.
